hmm...my footwell lights almost look more purple than my map lights, etc...

like they aren't as bright....maybe I will try the map lights from rx8 strakes. Do they have a dome light as well..the one in the back seat?

here are some shots with the RR's footwell lights coupled with RX8Strakes super blue LEDs door and dome.
The dome light comes with the door light set (atleast mine did). My map lights are still conventional bulbs... and I'm still on the fence as to whether or not I want to convert them.

I believe each of mine (both dome and door) consisted of 6 LEDs each if that's what you're referring to.

I'm actually considering the Blacklight kit from RX8strakes, but I think it's way overpriced compared to the rest of their setups. Why is that? $40, it has 2 more bulbs than the $15 sets?

Update:

I was making some sets this weekend and noticed that the resistors I got the other day were the wrong type.

Anyway, I shipped a few but there are 4 orders that haven't shipped because I ran out of resistors. I reordered the parts and should have them in a week or so. Sorry for the delay.

When I get home tonight I will check to see which 4 haven't shipped.

Phew, I'm glad 57d didn't ship..

Does anyone have any pictures of the wiring or attachment to the under-dash? I'm really picky about making sure my car looks stock, and I don't want any loose/bare wires or holes in the underdash, etc..

57d is in Switzerland

I'd rather no pictures of where the wires attach be posted because finding the correct wires was the hardest part of this project for me. When you buy my kit, you're not just buying the leds but also the directions to install them... think of it as intellectual property.

You will not see any loose wires and the car will appear stock. The dealer will not harass you about them. Lastly, if you decide to sell the car, these can be removed without any residual effects or marks.

Hi there. Payment sent for one set of RED LED Footwell Lights. I am pumped. Last year I spent the whole winter buying stuff from all over the world to have installed on my RX8 and to say this baby turned heads this summer would be an understatement. It's almost winter again so it's time to start stockpiling mods for spring installation. Thanks!
